New Features[edit | edit source]

As the software (mediawiki) that runs this wiki site gets updated, we'll let you know in the changelog. We'll also let you know about new 'extensions' that offer new functionality to wiki contributors.

The Interwiki Extension has been added which makes it easy to manipulate the interwiki table. http://mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SpecialInterwiki But what is the Interwiki table you say? The Interwiki table sets up internal namespaces making it convenient for authors to create links to other wikis. For example, you can link to a Wikipedia article with the following syntax: [[WikiPedia:Thomas_Jefferson]]. There is a long list of wikis and sites already included in the Interwiki table. If you are aware of some wiki or website that we should add to the interwiki table, please tell Greg.
